Income Taxes

Differences  between the effective  rate of income taxes and the statutory  rate
arise principally from non-taxable interest on investments and loans.

Securitizations
 
The Company  securitized  $185,000 of credit card  receivables in the first nine
months  of 1995 and  $2,398,801  of  credit  card  receivables  in  1994.  These
transactions  were recorded as sales in accordance  with  Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 77, "Reporting by Transferors for Transfers of
Receivables  with  Recourse." In  conjunction  with the spin-off of Capital One,
Signet  Bank/Virginia's  rights  and  obligations  under  the  majority  of  its
securitization agreements entered into prior to November 22, 1994 as well as any
related assets and liabilities  were transferred to Capital One Bank on November
22, 1994.  Receivables  outstanding  under  Signet's  remaining  securitizations
amounted to $290,833 at September 30, 1995. Proceeds from the sales in the first
nine months of 1995 and 1994  totaled  $184,900 and  $2,393,93 6,  respectively.
Recourse  obligations  related to these  transactions  are not material.  Excess
servicing fees related to the securitizations are recorded over the life of each
sale transaction.  The excess servicing fee is based upon the difference between
finance charges  received from the cardholders less the yield paid to investors,
credit losses and a normal  servicing fee, which is also retained by Signet.  In
accordance with the sale agreements, a fixed amount of excess servicing fees are
set aside to absorb credit losses.  The amount available to absorb credit losses
is included in other assets and was $17,500 at September 30, 1995.

Recent  Accounting  Statements  

Beginning in 1995,  Signet  adopted SFAS No. 114,  "Accounting  by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan," and SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan - Income  Recognition  and  Disclosures."  In accordance with SFAS No.
114,  impaired  loans are measured and  reported  based on the present  value of
expected cash flows discounted at the loan's effective intere st rate, or at the
fair  value  of the  loan's  collateral  if the  loan is  collateral  dependent.
Impaired loans are specifically reviewed loans for which it is probable that the
creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the
loan agreement. A valuation allowance is required to the extent that the measure
of impaired loans is less than the recorded investment.

SFAS No.  114  does not  apply to large  groups  of  homogeneous  loans  such as
consumer  installment and bank card loans, which are collectively  evaluated for
impairment.  Smaller balance  populations of commercial  loans are also excluded
from the  application  of the Statement.  At September 30, 1995,  Signet's loans
that are  considered  to be impaired  under SFAS No. 114 are  comprised of $33.7
million of non-accrual  loans for which the related  allowance for credit losses
is $9.8 million.  The average  recorded  investment in impaired loans during the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 was approximately $28.6 million. Collateral
dependent loans,  which were measured at the fair value of the loan's collateral
made up the majority of impaired loans at September 30, 1995.

SFAS No. 118 allows a creditor to use existing methods for recognizing  interest
income on impaired loans.  Interest  receipts on impaired loans are applied in a
manner  consistent  with Signet's  policy for  non-accrual  loans.  For the nine
months ended  September 30, 1995, no interest income was recorded on non-accrual
loans. All interest receipts on impaired loans were applied to the principal.

During the third  quarter of 1995,  the  Company  elected to adopt SFAS No. 122,
"Accounting  for Mortgage  Servicing  Rights." In accordance with the Statement,
the cost of mortgage loans  purchased or originated,  with a definitive  plan to
sell the loans and retain the mortgage  servicing  rights,  is allocated between
the loans and the servicing  rights based on their  estimated fair values at the
purchase or origination  date.  The estimated  fair value of mortgage  servicing
rights is  determined  based upon quoted market  prices for similar  assets,  if
available,  or the results of valuation  techniques such as the present value of
future  cash flows  using an  appropriate  discount  rate.  In  determining  the
estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights,  Signet utilizes a discounted
cash flow model which incorporates  assumptions such as prepayment speeds of the
underlying  loans,  default  rates,  servicing  income,   servicing  costs,  and
inflation factors.

For the purpose of evaluating and measuring  impairment of capitalized  mortgage
servicing rights,  SFAS No. 122 requires that such rights be stratified based on
one or more of the predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans. For
Signet,  these  characteristics  include loan type, term, and interest rate. The
amount of impairment  recognized is the amount by which the capitalized mortgage
servicing rights in each stratum exceed their fair value and is recorded through
a valuation allowance.  Subsequent to the initial measurement of impairment, the
valuation  allowance should be adjusted to reflect changes in the measurement of
impairment.  Fair value in excess of the amount  capitalized net of amortization
is, however, not recognized. The initial adoption of these impairment provisions
did  not  require  Signet  to  record  a  valuation  allowance  for  any  of its
capitalized mortgage servicing rights,  including servicing rights that had been
purchased prior to the adoption of the SFAS No. 122.

The effect of  adopting  SFAS No. 122 on the  Company's  consolidated  financial
statements was an increase in pre-tax income of approximately  $3.7 million (net
of amortization) with a corresponding increase in mortgage servicing rights. The
additional  income  resulted  from a lower  adjusted  cost  basis of  originated
mortgage loans sold with servicing retained. In addition to the servicing rights
capitalized on originated  mortgage  servicing rights,  Signet capitalized $15.1
million of purchased mortgage servicing rights in the first nine months of 1995.
Amortization  expense related to all capitalized  mortgage  servicing rights was
$3.6 million for the first nine months of 1995.

SFAS No.  121,  "Accounting  for the  Impairment  of  Long-Lived  Assets and for
Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed  Of," was issued in March 1995.  The Statement
requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable  intangibles to be held
and used be reviewed for impairment  whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate  that the  carrying  amount  of an  asset  may not be  recoverable.  In
determining the  recoverability  of an asset, the enterprise should estimate the
future cash flows  expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual
disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying
amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recognized.  The Statement also
requires  that  long-lived  assets and certain  identifiable  intangibles  to be
disposed  of be  reported  at the lower of  carrying  amount or fair  value less
selling  costs.  The  Statement is effective  for fiscal years  beginning  after
December 15, 1995.  Earlier adoption is encouraged.  The effect of adopting SFAS
No. 121,  which is expected to occur on January 1, 1996, is not expected to have
a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Capital One Financial  Corporation  ("Capital  One")

On July 27, 1994,  Signet  Banking  Corporation  ("Signet")  announced  plans to
spin-off  substantially  all of its credit  card  business.  Under  such  plans,
designated assets and liabilities of Signet Bank/Virginia's  ("SBV") credit card
division were transferred to Capital One Bank, a newly chartered limited purpose
credit card bank.  Capital One Bank became, in conjunction with the transfer,  a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Capital One, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Signet (the
"Separation").  Accounts representing  approximately $335 million, or 5%, of the
managed credit card portfolio were retained by Signet.  The Separation  occurred
November 22, 1994, at which time 7,125,000 shares of common stock of Capital One
were  sold  in  an  initial  public  offering.  On  February  28,  1995,  Signet
distributed  all  of  the  common  stock  it  held  in  Capital  One  to  Signet
stockholders in a tax free distribution.  Included in Signet's 1995 non-interest
expense is $2,018 of minority interest in Capital One's earnings.

Subsequent  to February  28,  1995,  Capital  One's  results of  operations  and
financial position are excluded from Signet's.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations



Introduction
Signet Banking  Corporation  ("Signet" or "the Company"),  with  headquarters in
Richmond,  Virginia,  is a registered  multi-bank,  multi-state  holding company
whose  stock is listed on the New York Stock  Exchange  under the symbol SBK. At
September 30, 1995,  Signet had assets of $11.1  billion and provided  financial
services   through  three   principal   subsidiaries:   Signet  Bank/  Virginia,
headquartered  in Richmond,  Virginia;  Signet  Bank/Maryland,  headquartered in
Baltimore, Maryland; and Signet Bank N.A., headquartered in Washington, D.C.
          Signet engages in general  commercial and consumer banking  businesses
and provides a full range of financial  services to individuals,  businesses and
organizations  through 244 banking offices,  252 automated teller machines and a
24-hour a day full-service  Telephone  Banking Center.  Signet offers investment
services including municipal bond,  government,  federal agency and money market
sales  and  trading,   foreign  exchange  trading,  mutual  funds  and  discount
brokerage.  In addition,  specialized services for trust,  leasing,  asset based
lending,  cash management,  real estate,  insurance,  consumer  financing and an
international  operation  concentrating  on trade finance are offered.  Signet's
primary market area extends from Baltimore to Washington, south to Richmond, and
on to Hampton Roads/Tidewater Virginia. Signet markets several of its products
nationally.
          During  the  third  quarter  of  1995,  Signet  adopted  Statement  of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No. 122,  "Accounting  For  Mortgage
Servicing  Rights".  The statement  requires that a mortgage banking  enterprise
recognize internally  originated rights to service mortgage loans sold to others
as separate assets. Upon adoption, Signet recognized pre-tax income of
approximately $3.7 million.
          Also  during  the  three  months  ended  September  30,  1995,  Signet
experienced  higher  charge-offs   related  to  risk  tests  conducted  for  its
"loan-by-check"  product.  These charge-offs were on loans generated from direct
mail  solicitations in late 1994 as Signet ran controlled tests to determine the
criteria to be used when Signet expands loan-by-check solicitations.  Management
expects  consumer loan  charge-offs to decline to more moderate  levels once the
loans from these solicitations have seasoned.
          On October 25, 1994,  Signet filed an amended  registration  statement
with the Securities and Exchange  Commission  which  described plans to spin off
Capital One Financial Corporation ("Capital One"). Under such plans,  designated
assets  and  liabilities  of  Signet  Bank/  Virginia's  credit  card  division,
including  all credit card  servicing  functions,  a credit card  securitization
master trust and  substantially  all credit card accounts,  were  transferred to
Capital One Bank, a newly chartered  limited  purpose credit card bank.  Capital
One Bank became, in conjunction with the transfer, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Capital One, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Signet (the "Separation"). Accounts of
cardholders in Signet's market area representing approximately $335 million, or
5%, of the managed credit card portfolio were retained by Signet. The Separation
occurred November 22, 1994 at which time 7,125,000 shares of common stock of
Capital One were sold in an initial public offering. Signet distributed all of
the remaining common stock it held in Capital One to Signet stockholders in a
tax-free distribution on February 28, 1995 ("the Spin-Off") at which time Signet
and Capital One became independent companies.
          The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying financial statements, notes and other supplemental information
contained in this document. Results of operations for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of results to be
attained for any other period. In addition to the discussion of consolidated
information, PRO FORMA data is provided for the same periods where it was
meaningful to discuss the Company's results excluding Capital One. Consolidated
and PRO FORMA results are the same for the second and third quarters of 1995.
PRO FORMA financial information is provided as supplementary financial data on
pages 21 through 27.

EARNINGS ANALYSIS

Consolidated net income for the third quarter of 1995 was $30.1 million, or $.
50 per share, compared with $3.5 million, or $.05 per share, in the same quarter
last year. The third quarter 1994 consolidated earnings were impacted by $82.6
million of special pre-tax charges for restructuring and for terminating certain
data processing contracts. On a PRO FORMA basis, the third quarter 1995 net
income increased 15% from $26.7 million or $.45 per share for the same three
months last year, excluding restructuring charges. Consolidated net income for
the first nine months of 1995 was $102.1 million or $1.71 per share compared
with $107.0 million or $1.86 per share in the same period last year.
Consolidated earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, include the
results of Capital One for the two months prior to the Spin-Off on February 28,
1995. On a PRO FORMA basis, net income for the first nine months of 1995 was
$86.5 million, an increase of 44% from the $60.1 million earned in the first
nine months of 1994 after adjusting for the restructuring charges.
          The return on assets (ROA) for the third quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1995 was 1.11% and 1.22%, respectively. This compares with .13%
and 1.27% for the same respective periods last year. On a PRO FORMA basis, ROA
for the first nine months of 1995 was 1.10%, up from .93% in 1994, excluding
restructuring charges. The third quarter 1995 ROA of 1.11% fell from the PRO
FORMA ROA of 1.23% for the same period in 1994, excluding restructuring charges,
as average assets increased proportionally more than net income.
          The return on common stockholders' equity (ROE) for the third quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 1995 was 14.51% and 15.64%, respectively.
This compares with 1.29% and 13.89% for the same periods last year. On a PRO
FORMA basis and excluding the 1994 restructuring charges, ROE for the first nine
months of 1995 increased significantly from 9.80% in 1994 to 14.62% this year.
The 14.51% ROE for the third quarter of 1995 also improved nearly 200 basis
points from 12.56% (PRO FORMA and excluding restructuring charges) in the third
quarter of 1994.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Taxable equivalent net interest income, a principal component of earnings,
totaled $119.5 million for the quarter and $386.4 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995. This was a 10% decrease from the same quarter and less
than a 2% decline from the first nine months last year. On a PRO FORMA ba sis,
taxable equivalent net interest income totaled $361.2 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995. This compares with $92.6 million for the
quarter and $259.7 million for the first nine months of last year, on a PR O
FORMA basis, representing increases of 29% and 39% for the respective periods.
PRO FORMA taxable equivalent net interest income increased in 1995 compared with
1994 due to strong growth in earning assets, particularly in the consumer loan
portfolio.
          The net yield margin for the third quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1995 was 4.96% and 5.18%, respectively, down 53 basis points and 6
basis points from the same periods last year. On a PRO FORMA basis, the net
yield margin was 5.17% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The net
yield  margin rose 6 basis  points and 62 basis  points,  on a pro forma basis ,
from the third  quarter  and first nine months of last year,  respectively.  The
increase in the pro forma net yield margin from 1994 was primarily due to yields
on earning assets improving more quickly than the rise in funding costs. Table 3
analyzes the change in the net yield margin from the second quarter to the third
quarter of 1995. An approximate  basis point impact was calculated for each item
noted.  The decrease in net interest spread and net yield margin from the second
quarter of 1995 was primarily due to a shift in the earning asset mix.
          Signet uses various  off-balance sheet interest rate derivatives as an
integral part of its asset and liability management. For Signet's core business,
variable  rate assets  generally  exceed  variable  rate  liabilities.  To hedge
against the  resulting  interest rate risk,  Signet has entered into  derivative
transactions.  At September  30,  1995,  the  notional  values of the  Company's
derivative  products  for the  purpose of hedging  interest  rate risk were $2.7
billion of interest  rate swaps,  $650 million of interest  rate floors and $300
million of interest rate caps.  Interest rate  derivative  products  reduced the
third  quarter  margin by 3 basis points  compared with adding 5 basis points to
the  second  quarter  of 1995  net  yield  margin,  primarily  due to  contracts
maturing. The impact of these contracts fell from $ 1.3 million of income in the
second quarter of 1995 to $.7 million of expense in the current quarter.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
On a pro forma  basis,  the  provision  for loan losses was $8.7 million for the
third quarter and $16.2 million for the first nine months of 1995. This compares
with provision reversals of $5.2 million in the third quarter and $13 .1 million
for the first nine  months of 1994.  The  increase in  provision  was related to
growth in the consumer loan  portfolio.  For the first nine months of 1995,  pro
forma net loan losses  totaled $34.3  million,  $13.9 million of which  resulted
from the bulk sale of real estate  related loans in the second quarter for which
there was already  sufficient  allowance.  The sale was made as part of Signet's
overall  strategy to reduce its commercial real estate  exposure.  The remaining
1995 loan losses are principally  due to a 73% increase in the average  consumer
loan  portfolio in the first nine months of 1995  compared  with the same period
last year and higher charge-offs  related to late 1994 loan-by-check risk tests.
Management  expects consumer loan charge-offs to decline to more moderate levels
once the loans from these  solicitations  have seasoned.  Excluding  charge-offs
related to the 1995 and 1994 sales of real estate related loans, loan losses for
the first nine months of 1995  amounted  to .47% of average  loans which is a 40
basis points increase from the comparable period in 1994, on a pro forma basis.
          The  allowance  for loan  losses  at  September  30,  1995 was  $129.7
million,  or 2.35% of net loans,  compared with $156.8 million,  or 3.32% of net
loans, at September 30, 1994, on a pro forma basis, and $136.5 million, or 2.40%
of net loans,  at June 30, 1995.  The decrease from September 30, 1994, on a pro
forma basis, resulted primarily from a $3.1 million loan loss provision reversal
in the fourth quarter of 1994,  higher consumer loan charge-offs and charge-offs
taken on real estate  related loans during the past year,  the majority of which
were related to the real estate loan sale in the second quarter of 1995.
          To  determine  the  appropriate  level of  allowance  for loan losses,
management  identifies  and  examines on a monthly  basis the  commercial,  real
estate  and  large   consumer  loans   warranting   attention  and  reviews  the
creditworthiness of the borrower,  the adequacy of underlying collateral and the
impact of business and economic conditions upon the borrower.
          Beginning  in 1995,  Signet  adopted  SFAS  No.  114,  "Accounting  by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," and SFAS No. 118,  "Accounting by Creditors
for Impairment of a Loan - Income  Recognition and  Disclosures."  In accordance
with the SFAS No. 114,  impaired  loans are measured  and reported  based on the
present  value of the loan's  collateral  if the loan is  collateral  dependent.
Impaired loans are specifically reviewed loans for which it is probable that the
creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the
loan agreement. A valuation allowance is required to the extent that the measure
of impaired loans is less than the recorded investment.
          SFAS No. 114 does not apply to large groups of homogeneous  loans such
as consumer  installment and bank card loans,  which are collectively  evaluated
for  impairment.  Smaller  balance  populations  of  commercial  loans  are also
excluded from the  application of SFAS No. 114. At September 30, 1995,  Signet's
loans that are  considered  to be impaired  under SFAS No. 114 are  comprised of
$33.7 million of  non-accrual  loans for which the related  allowance for credit
losses is $9.8 million. The average recorded investment in impaired loans during
the nine months  ended  September  30,  1995 was  approximately  $28.6  million.
Collateral  dependent loans, which were measured at the fair value of the loan's
collateral made up the majority of impaired loans at September 30, 1995.
          SFAS No. 118 allows a creditor to use existing methods for recognizing
interest  income on impaired  loans.  Interest  receipts  on impaired  loans are
applied in a manner  consistent with Signet's policy for non-accrual  loans. For
the nine months ended  September  30, 1995,  no interest  income was recorded on
non-accrual  loans. All interest  receipts on impaired loans were applied to the
principal.
          The consumer  portfolio  receives an overall  allocation based on such
factors as current and anticipated  economic conditions,  historical  charge-off
and recovery  rates and trends in  delinquencies.  The remaining  loan portfolio
(unclassified commercial real estate loans) receives a general allocation deemed
to be  reasonably  necessary to provide for losses  based on the factors  listed
above and on  migration  analysis  which  traces  loan risk  ratings and related
losses over time.  Manage- ment  believes  that the allowance for loan losses is
adequate  to cover  anticipated  losses  in the  loan  portfolio  under  current
economic conditions.

</TABLE>
* Real estate - mortgage  includes  real estate -  commercial  mortgage and real
estate - residential mortgage. Real estate- residential mortgage charge-offs and
recoveries were not significant for the periods presented.  Charge-offs  related
to the loan sale in the second  quarter of 1995 were  $13,897,  of which $12,594
were real estate mortgage and $1,303 were commercial. Charge-offs related to the
loan sale in the third quarter of 1994 were $21,012,  of which $16,494 were real
estate mortgage and $4,518 were real estate construction.

Non-Interest Income
Total  non-interest  income was $47.1  million in the third  quarter of 1995,  a
decrease of $104.7  million  from the third  quarter of 1994 and a $4.2  million
increase from the second quarter of 1995. The decrease from 1994 was caused by a
sharp decline in credit card  servicing and service charge income in 1995 due to
the Spin-Off.  On a pro forma basis,  total  non-interest  income  declined $8.1
million from the third  quarter of 1994  primarily  the result of a $4.9 million
drop in credit card servicing and service  charge  income.  During 1994, for pro
forma purposes, the credit card portfolio was assumed to be entirely off-balance
sheet which caused servicing  income to be higher.  The increase in non-interest
income from the second  quarter of 1995 was caused by growth in service  charges
on deposit accounts, a rise in trust income as Signet recorded fees for managing
the recently acquired Blanchard funds and the adoption of SFAS No. 122 mentioned
earlier.  Mortgage  servicing and origination fee income  increased 10% from the
second  quarter this year to $6.0 million as a result of an increase in mortgage
loan volume. An increase in mortgage servicing income from third quarter 1994 to
third quarter 1995 more than offset a declin e in loan origination  income.  For
the third quarter of 1995,  Signet  recorded  trading  gains of $1.8 million,  a
decline  from $3.8  million  of  trading  gains in the  second  quarter,  but an
improvement  from $0.3 million of net gains  recognized  in the third quarter of
1994.

Non-Interest Expense
Total  non-interest  expense  amounted to $109.5 million in the third quarter of
1995, a  significant  decline from $276.8  million in the third quarter of 1994.
Decreases  occurred  in all  categories  as a  result  of the  Spin-Off  and the
restructuring  charges  recorded  in 1994.  The number of  full-time  equivalent
employees  fell 36% from the third  quarter of 1994 as a result of the Spin-Off,
the displacement of  approximately  750 employees during the latter half of 1994
and an early  retirement  program  in which 225  employees  participated.  Total
salary and employee  benefits  declined  $29.1  million,  or 34%, from the third
quarter of 1994 to the third quarter of 1995.  During the third quarter of 1995,
Signet  received a rebate of  approximately  $4.1 million on its FDIC assessment
which reduced expenses further. On a pro forma basis, total non-interest expense
declined slightly from the second quarter of this year's total of $111.4 million
and decreased 3% from $112.6 million  (excluding the  restructuring  charges) in
the third  quarter of 1994 as Signet  continued  efforts to reduce  non-interest
expense.
          Excluding Capital One,  restructuring  charges and foreclosed property
expense for all periods,  Signet's  efficiency  ratio (the ratio of non-interest
expense to taxable  equivalent  operating  income) for the third quarter of 1995
improved  to 65.99%  compared  with  75.89% for the same  quarter  last year and
68.67%  for the  second  quarter  this year.  The  improvement  in this ratio is
primarily the result of strong revenue growth. The third quarter 1995 efficiency
ratio is within the range that  management set as a goa l to reach by the fourth
quarter of 1995.

         In  the  third  quarter  of  1994,  Signet  recorded  a  $43.2  million
restructuring  charge  related to a  comprehensive  plan for reducing  costs and
increasing revenue in order to enhance its competitive position. As of September
30,  1995,  the  amounts  actually  paid and charged  against the  restructuring
liability   were   approximately   $6.5  million  for   severance   payments  to
approximately  650  employees,  $2.5 million for  payments  made under the early
retirement  program and  approximately  $6.2 million for lease  termination  and
other  facilities  related costs.  The remaining  liability of $28 .0 million is
primarily  comprised of accrued retiree medical and pension benefits and accrued
facilities related costs.

Income Taxes
Signet  recorded  income tax expense of $15.7  million for the third  quarter of
1995  compared with a tax benefit of $1.2 million for the third quarter of 1994,
on a pro forma basis, and $15.0 million for the second quarter of this year. The
tax  benefit in the third  quarter  of 1994 was  principally  due to  tax-exempt
income  exceeding the pre-tax income as a result of the  restructuring  charges.
The effective tax rate for the second and third quarters of 1995 was 34%.

FINANCIAL CONDITION  (on a pro forma basis)
Earning assets  averaged $9.6 billion for the third quarter and $9.3 billion for
the  first  nine  months  of  1995,  an  increase  of 23% and 22%  from the same
respective periods last year.  Average  investment  securities rose $129 million
and average  securities  available  for sale were up $555 million from the prior
year's third quarter.  Loans held for  securitization  averaged $426 million for
the third quarter of 1995. These assets were reclassified from the loan category
in anticipation of securitizations.  There were no loans held for securitization
in the third  quarter of last year.  Total loans  averaged  $5.8 billion for the
quarter,  reflecting a 30% rise from the third quarter of 1994. Average consumer
loans  increased  49% to $2.2  billion as a result of the growth in student  and
installment   loans.  The  on-balance  sheet  average  consumer  loan  portfolio
increased 89% to $2.8 billion from the 1994 third quarter.  This amount includes
the consumer loan portfolio,  loans held for  securitization  and loans held for
sale.  Average real  estate-construction  loans  remained level at $230 million.
Average real estate-commercial mortgage loans declined 25% to $424 million. Real
estate-residential  mortgages  were up 170% to $241 million as a result of loans
acquired from Pioneer Financial  Corporation and management's decision to retain
rather than sell a portion of the mortgages  originated  by Signet.  The sale of
real estate  related  loans in the third  quarter of 1994 and second  quarter of
1995 primarily impacted the real  estate-construction and real estate-commercial
mortgage loan  categories.  The yield on earning  assets was 8.69% for the third
quarter of 1995 down from 8.78% for the second  quarter this year due to a shift
in the mix of earning assets.

     Average  interest  bearing  liabilities  totaled  $8.2 billion in the third
quarter and $8.0 billion for the first nine months of 1995,  up 37% and 31% from
the same respective periods of 1994. Money market savings declined $276 million,
or 17%, and savings  certificates  decreased $146 million,  or 8%, from the same
quarter  last year.  Deposit  categories  experiencing  increases  from the same
quarter last year included money market and interest checking up $25 million and
savings  accounts up $273  million,  or 26%.  Average  core  deposits  fell $111
million,  or less than 2%, when  comparing  third  quarter of 1995 with the same
quarter  last  year.   Purchased   funds,   which  include  large   denomination
certificates,  foreign  deposits,  federal funds and  repurchase  agreements and
other  short-term and long-term  borrowings,  averaged $2.7 billion for the 1995
third  quarter,  up $19 7 million from the second  quarter of 1995.  The average
rate on interest  bearing  liabilities  was 4.37% for the third  quarter of 1995
compared  with 4.28% for the second  quarter  this year,  an increase of 9 basis
points, which was generally the due to a decline in derivative income.

CONSUMER LOAN GROWTH
In 1994,  Signet  expanded its use of  information-based  strategies to all
types of consumer loans, which  significantly  increased growth.  This technique
involves  generating  a data  base  of  creditworthy  customers  for  particular
products  and then  following  up with  direct-mail  solicitations.  Much of the
growth  was in a new loan  product,  "loan-by-check".  Customers  who  receive a
direct-mail  solicitation are offered  installment loans in the form of a check.
To activate  the loan,  the  customer  endorses the note and deposits the check.
Signet is also applying information-based strategies to home equity, student and
small  business  loans.  Solicita-  tions  in  these  areas  are  mostly  in the
preliminary  testing  stages.  These tests are  designed to help Signet  develop
products that are both appealing to customers and economically  feasible for the
Company. As a result of these solicitations, loans are growing at a strong pace.
From  September  30, 1994 to  September  30, 1995,  the student  loan  portfolio
(including $300 million in student loans held for securitization) increased $211
million;  the installment  loan portfolio  (including $165 million in loans held
for sale) grew $636 million;  and the home equity loan portfolio (including $450
million  in loans  held for  securitization)  was up $53  million.  The  managed
consumer loan portfolio,  which includes securitized  receivables,  increased by
$725 million, or 37%, from September 30, 1994, on a pro forma basis, and by $125
million, or 5%, from June 30, 1995.

RISK ELEMENTS
Non-performing   assets  include  non-accrual  loans,   restructured  loans  and
foreclosed  properties.  Non- performing  assets declined $5.9 million or 10% in
the third  quarter of 1995.  Non-performing  assets  represented  0.93% of total
loans and foreclosed properties at September 30, 1995, down from 1.01% and 1.39%
at June 30, 1995 and September 30, 1994, on a pro forma basis, respectively. The
allowance for loan losses equaled 340% of non-performing  loans at September 30,
1995, up from 297% at June 30, 1995 and down from 411% at September 30, 1994, on
a pro forma basis. The ratio of the allowance to  non-performing  assets rose to
252% at September 30, 1995 from 238% at June 30, 1995 and September 30, 1994, on
a pro forma basis.

     Foreclosed properties totaled $13.4 million at the end of the third quarter
of 1995, down from $22.5 million at the previous year-end, and were equal to 26%
of total non-performing  assets and 32% of non-performing real estate assets. In
accordance  with Statement No. 114, a loan is classified as foreclosed  property
when possession has been taken of the  collateral,  regardless of whether formal
foreclosure proceedings have taken place.

          Accruing loans which are contractually  past due 90 days or more as to
principal or interest payments totaled $66.2 million at September 30, 1995. This
is a 21%  increase  from  the  $54.5  million  level as of June  30,  1995,  and
represents a 47% increase from the $45.1 million reported at September 30, 1994,
on a pro forma  basis.  The  September  30,  1995 total was  comprised  of $47.3
million  of  consumer   loans  (of  which  $28.1   million   were  student  loan
delinquencies,  which are indirectly  government guaranteed and do not represent
material loss exposure, and $5.1 million of credit card loans); $14.6 million of
mortgage  loans;   $3.9  million  of  commercial   loans;  and  $.4  million  of
construction loans.

STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY DATA

At September  30, 1995,  stockholders'  equity  totaled  $842  million,  an
increase of 13% from the December 31, 1994 level of $744 million, on a pro forma
basis.  Approximately $383 million of Signet's  stockholders' equity transferred
to  Capital  One  in  connection   with  the  Spin-Off.   The  Company's   total
stockholders'  equity to assets ratio was 7.59% at September 30, 1995,  slightly
lower than the 7.70% at June 30, 1995 but higher than the 7.54% at December  31,
1994, on a pro forma basis.  Signet's  risk-adjusted capital ratios at September
30,  1995  remained  strong at 9.91% and  12.68%  for Tier I and Total  Capital,
respectively. The leverage ratio is calculated by dividing Tier I Capital by the
current  quarter's  total  average  assets less  goodwill  and other  disallowed
intangibles.  Signet's  leverage ratio at September 30, 1995 was 7.06% down from
7.20% at June 30, 1995. For most  corporations,  including  Signet,  the minimum
leverage  ratio is 3% plus an  additional  cushion  of 100 to 200  basis  points
depending upon risk profiles and other factors. At September 30, 1995, all three
of Signet's  banking  subsidiaries  met the criteria  established by the Federal
Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  Improvement  Act of 1991  ("FDICIA")  for "well
capitalized" institutions.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY AND LIQUIDITY
Signet's  interest  rate  sensitivity  position  is  managed  by the  Asset  and
Liability  Committee  ("ALCO") and monitored  through the use of  simulations on
rate sensitive  pre-tax income.  Interest rate  sensitivity is the  relationship
between  changes in market  interest rates and changes in rate sensitive  income
due to the repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities.  For example, in
periods of rising  rates,  the core banking  businesses  will  experience  wider
spreads as consumer  deposit costs lag increases in market interest rates.  Impr
oved  spreads due to the lag in pricing on consumer  deposits  will be partially
offset  to  the  extent  that  the  funding  cost  on the  investment  portfolio
increases. ALCO routinely uses derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, to help
insulate  the Company  against  the  possibility  of sudden  changes in interest
rates.

          ALCO, in managing interest rate sensitivity,  also uses simulations to
better measure the impact that market changes and alternative  strategies  might
have  on net  interest  income.  Both  current  period  maturity  and  repricing
information  and projected  balance sheet  strategies  are used to simulate rate
sensitivity.  The lag  effect of  consumer  deposit  rates,  determined  through
historical  analysis  and  forecasting   techniques,   is  also  modeled.  These
simulations  show that an  immediate  and  sustained  100 basis point  change in
interest  rates would have less than a 1% impact on rate  sensitive  income over
the next twelve months, reflecting Signet's conservative balance sheet strategy.
ALCO operates under a policy  designed to limit the impact of a sudden 100 basis
point change in interest  rates to no more than a 5% change in net income over a
twelve month period.

          Asset  liquidity is generally  provided by interest  bearing  deposits
with other  banks,  Federal  funds sold and  securities  purchased  under resale
agreements,  trading account securities,  loans held for  securitization,  loans
held for sale and securities  available for sale. This group of interest-earning
assets totaled $4.1 billion, or 41% of earning assets at September 30, 1995. The
loan portfolio is a secondary source of asset liquidity.  Liability liquidity is
measured by the  Company's  ability to obtain  funds at  favorable  rates and in
adequate  amounts.  Core  deposits  are the largest and most  important  funding
source.  These  deposits  totaled 121% of total loans as of September  30, 1995.
Purchased  funds  consisted  primarily of funds from local  customers  which are
considered to be less volatile than other  purchased  liabilities and repurchase
agreements.  For the  first  nine  months  of 1995,  cash  and cash  equivalents
decreased  by $1.1 billion  primarily as a result of a sharp  decline in Federal
funds  sold and  securities  purchased  under  resale  agreements.  Cash used by
operations  was $547  million  for this time  period  resulting  mainly from the
increase in other  assets.  Cash used by investing  activities  amounted to $2.3
billion  principally due to the increase in securities  available for sale. Cash
provided by financing activities amounted to $1.7 billion principally related to
financing Capital One prior to the Spin-Off.

                          Supplemental Financial Data
               Signet Banking Corporation (Excluding Capital One)

          On February 28, 1995, Signet Banking  Corporation  ("Signet") spun off
Capital One Financial  Corporation  ("Capital One"). The supplemental  financial
data which  follows  portrays  Signet's  financial  position  and the results of
operations  on a pro forma  basis,  for the periods  prior to February 28, 1995.
Amounts  related to Capital One were  subtracted from the Signet totals and were
computed as follows: actual interest income, an allocation for funding (interest
expense) when Capital One operated as a division of Signet  Bank/Virginia (prior
to November 22, 1994) and actual interest expense for the period thereafter, and
actual  non-interest  income  and  non-interest   expense.   Overhead  expenses,
allocable to Capital One prior to November 22, 1994,  were not subtracted  since
the major portion of these predominantly fixed expenses remain with Signet Bank.
These  expenses were added to non-inter  est income to reflect the  intercompany
allocation to Capital One.
